The Harry Potter Personality Quiz

I came across these Harry Potter personality test questions while browsing HP websites at work, and they amused me enough that I thought I would post my answers here. If you've read the books and have the time, I'd love it if you'd put your own answers in a comment. Thanks!

Where would the Sorting Hat put you? Ravenclaw, though I'm pleased to say I'm becoming more of a Gryffindor as I grow older.
Who (or what) would you stuff into the nearest Vanishing Cabinet? George W. Bush and everyone associated with his Administration.
What form would your boggart take? A tornado or a huge insect (especially a spider).
Where do you shop most in Diagon Alley? Flourish and Blotts
What corporeal form does your Patronus take? Per Katy and Ted's analysis of my daemon, it ought to be a swan.
Describe your wand: Applewood, twelve inches, containing four drops of rose oil, a pinch of salt, and a slip of parchment bearing the letter A.
Aunt Petunia has been taken hostage by the Death Eaters. You're leading the OotP rescue party. Who are you taking along? Lupin, Tonks, and Mad-Eye Moody, for wisdom, humor, and fierceness respectively.
Can you see Thestrals? No, thank God.
Who is your favorite Professor (aside from Dumbledore)? Minerva McGonagall
You have a single, one-hour dose of Polyjuice Potion brewed. Whose hair will you be dropping into it? Well, Voldemort's loose in the Wizarding world, so I don't really want to be anyone from there for a while. If I could step into other fictional worlds, Harriet Vane, Emma Woodhouse, or Stephen Maturin (this last for the fun of walking a tall ship for an hour, and not Jack because I wouldn't want the responsibilities); or in the real world, George W. Bush, because I'm sure I could say or do enough horrible things in the allotted time to screw him and his party over for the rest of his life.
What kind of broom do you fly? Cleansweep Seven -- old but stylish.
And finally, who is the Half-Blood Prince? (your top 3 picks) I'll just let y'all imagine the exceedingly smug and self-satisfied smile I'm wearing at the moment, and leave it at that. :-)

  11. I'm a Slytherin, and bloody proud of it.

    I would stuff Potter into the nearest vanishing cabinet, and probably Weasley too, for good measure.

    I can't believe you actually think I would be enough of an idiot to tell you what my boggart would be.

    I've never successfully conjured a Patronus (not that I've ever had to try. I haven't got Dementors stalking ME.) But if I did, I imagine it would be a fox or a snake, or something like.

    My wand would be exactly ten inches long (those that run on the slightly shorter side are less likely to accidentally snap) made of a dark wood, impeccably polished, with a core of dragon heartstring.

    Anyone who think's I'D put forth an ounce of effort for a nasty Muggle like Potter's Aunt Petunia is a nutter. But if I were coerced into it, I would demand to be accompanied by Professor Snape, and then someone who's powerful and just stupid enough to do exactly as I tell them, but not stupid enough to disobey me.

    I can't see thestrals yet, but I've a feeling it's only a matter of time.

    Severus Snape, is, of course, my favorite professor.

    If I had polyjuice, I would do my very best to get my hands on a hair of Lily Potter's, so I could tell Snape he's forgiven. He deserves at least that much. However, if I couldn't get her hair, I'd undergo the ordeal of becoming Potter for the sole purpose of destroyign his reputation in my one hour.

    I would fly whatever happens to be the best, top of the line. I'd mostly Apparate for transportation, as it's faster and more dramatic, but a broom is an indispensable part of wizarding tradition, and I want only the best.

    I know precisely who the Half-Blood Prince is. I could have saved the Three Idiots a lot of trouble trying to find it out, except they never would have asked me. And, come to think of it, I would have lied to them...
